Birth control prescription & refill consultation

Continuing birth control and choosing a new method both require a safety review. A clinician can discuss pills, the patch or the ring using your medical history and preferences. Bring your current product if you need a refill, and mention missed doses, bleeding changes and whether pregnancy is possible.

Before your visit

Have your current prescription and recent blood-pressure reading ready. Mention migraines, smoking, clot history, other medications and any pregnancy or breastfeeding considerations.

What happens next

Prescription duration and method depend on the evaluation. An online consultation does not perform an IUD insertion or physical examination; necessary in-person care can be coordinated.
